3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, beautifully restored apartment

This tastefully restored luxury apartment, found inside the walls of Lucca, is on the ‘piano nobile' of an historic palazzo. With lofty ceiling heights and frescoes throughout, its main feature is a magnificent and spacious living room.

The accommodation consists of three bedrooms; one double and two twins (one of which could be used as a double) and includes two luxurious modern bathrooms (one with a bath and one with a shower) with natural stone finishes. There are oak floors through the main rooms and white Carrara marble in the entrance and twin bedroom.

All the rooms have large south facing double windows looking out onto a small courtyard and over the red rooftops and towers of medieval Lucca.

This exclusive apartment has been fully modernized with central heating, air conditioning, smoke/burglar alarm, WiFi and smart TV.

Guest Access

The apartment is on the second floor and is reached by lift and staircase. It is situated within 100m of Via Fillungo, the main shopping area of the medieval city and is accessed from Via San Giorgio.

Interaction with Guests

I will meet you on arrival to provide you with a short description of Lucca, its local facilities and places of interest and to answer any queries you may have.

The Neighborhood

Located in the very heart of Lucca, all the attractions of the historical centre are easily accessible on foot. You will be able to explore the many wonderful restaurants, bars and shops that are within 5 minutes walk. The main shopping area (Via Fillungo) is within 100m and the main square, Piazza San Michele, is less than 5 minutes walk. You can breakfast in a local bar just 20m from your door and dine in any of the fine local restaurants.

Getting Around

The historical centre of Lucca has restricted vehicle access, however taxis will deliver you to the door of the palazzo. As it is difficult to park in Lucca, if you are thinking about driving here, please let us know in advance. We have access to private parking (additional charge of €10 per day payable locally). The parking is approximately 10 minutes walk from the apartment.

The train station is just 15 minutes walk away from the apartment whilst the bus station is even closer at 10 minutes walk away.

It is traditional in Lucca to explore the city on bicycle and there are many bicycle shops close by where you can hire bicycles to see the streets of Lucca on two wheels and ride on top of its famous walls.

Please note this apartment is not suitable for very small children (under 8's)

We would also like to make guests aware that there is a Tourist Tax payable locally. The rate is €1.50 per person per night up to a maximum of 3 nights. Children under 14 are exempt.

House Rules - We would politely request that all guests appreciate that they are staying in a medieval palazzo with 17th century frescoes, and treat the apartment with the respect it has earned over many centuries.

To help meet our environmental responsibilities, recycling is considered an important part of life in Lucca. Again we would ask all guests to respect this, and to participate in the daily recycling scheme. There is a fully refundable €25 deposit for the e-card used to operate the recycling bins.

NO SMOKING PERMITTED ANYWHERE IN THE APARTMENT (THIS INCLUDES THE USE OF E-CIGARETTES/VAPOURS ETC)

With regards the WiFi, there is a password protected system in place. However, our terms and conditions for use are as follows:

We will not be liable to you or any third party for any damages arising from use of the service, including without limitation: punitive, exemplary, incidental, special or consequential damages, loss of privacy or security damages; personal injury or property damages; or any damages whatsoever resulting from interruption or failure of service, lost profits, loss of business, loss of data, loss due to unauthorized access or due to viruses or other harmful components, cost of replacement products and services, the inability to use the service, the content of any data transmission, communication or message transmitted to or received by your device, access to the world wide web, the interception or loss of any data or transmission, or losses resulting from any goods or services purchased or messages or data received or transactions entered into through the service.

Thanks Ali for assisting us on site great secure parking and a little walk to house. The location is the best area of inside the wall close to shops, market and great coffee shop. The house is very warm with central heating and large windows to open and let light and fresh air in. We would definitely recommend to families as with our 3 children. Ali is a great host with plenty of support about the local area thank you

The best place in Lucca ever

Me and 5 other coworkers were in Lucca for Lucca Comics and we had the best time. The house is amazingly furnished, super clean, in the very center, right next to where comic artists go mingle at night (Piazza Anfiteatro) and the shopping street (via Fillungo), the two bathrooms make it easy to share the flat with that many people...There's just too many good things to say, and not a single negative one.

We were wowed by the ceilings, comforted by the warm beds, impressed with the care apparent in the amazing little oil bottle (made from the Owner's own 'uliveti') and the wonderful shampoo, cream and shower gel samples in the bathrooms.

We will book this place every year if we can, because it makes a tough business week like Lucca Comics (long hours in booths, signing books, walking through a city filled with more people than it can handle) feel like a complete holiday.

Ali, the manager, is an absolute darling and will be there for you no matter what.

Thank you so much for making our stay so amazing!

This is a fantastic spot from which to explore Lucca and the surrounding area. The apartment is beautiful, secure, quiet, and well-appointed. Our family thoroughly enjoyed hanging out here after a day spent exploring the countryside or nearby Florence. It's in a great location, so easy to walk to great dining and shopping. The apartment manager, Ali, was incredibly helpful and responsive. Our stay was fabulous, and we hope to return for future visits.
